Automatic Shut-Off
NOTE: Always use the wet or dry vacuum cleaner in the upright position. If cleaner
tips over, the suction automatically shuts off.
If the cleaner tips over:
•
Turn off the power switch and set the cleaner upright.
•
Wait a few seconds for the motor to come to a complete stop.
•
Restart the motor.
When the tank is full:
•
As the tank fills with liquid, the ball float (inside the cage) rises until it seats itself
against the bottom of the motor.
•
The motor sound becomes a high pitch sound.
•
The shut-off stops the suction.
•
Turn off the power switch.
•
Empty the tank (instructions follow).
CAUTION: FOR LIQUID PICKUP WITH THE PLEATED FILTER IN PLACE, DO NOT
FILL ABOVE INLET OR SPILLAGE WILL OCCUR. Your filter repels liquids
and when installed prevents your vacʼs float mechanism from automatically
shutting off airflow. Airflow will cease when your filter is completely submerged
in liquid, but spillage will occur if the water level reaches the vac tankʼs inlet
before airflow stops. The liquid level at which airflow will cease will be higher
than the normal automatic shut-off level. Your vacʼs float mechanism resumes
operation after removing the filter. Your filter should be dried completely after
liquid pickup to avoid mildew growth.
